These are so good, they've been the hit of the party everywhere I take them. Ingredients:
2 cups flour |
1 cup brown sugar |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
1 1/2-2 cups chopped pecans |
1 1/2 cups butter |
1 cup brown sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
8 ounces semi-sweet baker's chocolate, chopped |
6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Mix together ingredients for bottom layer to a fine crumb consistency. Pat into an ungreased 9x13 pyrex dish.
3. Sprinkle pecan layer using enough to completely cover bottom layer.
4. Combine caramel ingredients in saucepan and cook over medium high until it comes to a good expansive boil. Boil for one minute and remove from heat, then pour over pecans.
5. Bake for 20 minutes and remove from oven. It will not look done.
6. Immediately sprinkle the chocolate over the caramel and gently spread so that it melts and blends in with caramel layer.
7. Allow to cool completely before cutting. I like to serve it in small squares, about 1 1/2 , because they are very rich.
